It’s fucking delicious, that’s for sure. A perfect addition of saltiness. And it has to be the tiniest bit, anything more is overpowering.
Am I the only weirdo who enjoys this?
That’s how we eat vegemite and the whole world thinks we’re weird - Australia
Put Vegemite on my toast for the first time today, and I can confirm it’s weird - the rest of the world
I am Australian and I find Vegemite horrible.
Canadian here, who’s never been to Aus. I love Vegemite on toast.
Y’all motherfuckers need Marmite.
Top with some strong cheddar.
I wholeheartedly recommend Miso Butter Pasta. There are several variations but the main idea is to thoroughly blend a mix of soft (room temperature) Butter and Miso and to use it like a pesto with Spaghetti or Linguine.
My favourite version is to add a tablespoon of Mirin and a dash of roasted sesame oil into the butter miso mix and stir it into a paste. When pasta is ready, mingle hot pasta with the paste so that every noodle is evenly coated, arrange on a plate and sprinkle with a mix of white and black sesame seeds, drop spring onion chopped into small rings on top, voilá!
I am so trying this, sounds delicious. Thank you!
You are welcome! If you try and like it there a several interesting variations you could do after that, like adding fried mushrooms / garlic / onions on top. If you are into it´s numbing flavour, you could add ground Szechuan pepper into the paste, which imo fits very well because of it´s citrus notes, enjoy!
I just use Vegemite, same principle and basic production method, different ingredients.
That’s basically the same idea as vegemite - a salty umami spread.
Edit: shoulda read the other comments before posting
I don’t wanna eat anything that tastes like Miami or any other part of Florida, thank you.
Hot damn you posted on my typo within like 20 seconds
Bound to happen since I sort by newest comment ;)
There was an incredible vegan cuban sandwich shop where I live called Miami Nice. If that counts as tasting like Miami, I’d recommend it.
Related to this, pickled olives on peanut butter toast. It’s better than you think
Do you ummm… eat non-pickled olives?
Me? No. I don’t have access to an olive tree though. I assume fresh olives are eaten, but I’ve never even seen one
I don’t think olives are ever eater fresh. I have an olive tree in my back yard.
Apparently you’re practically correct. Fresh olives are very bitter, so most people don’t like them.
The more you know
We make a creamy potato-leek soup with miso paste. So damn good.
This is basically the same thing as Vegemite in Australia or Marmite in the UK right>
At my urging, my husband tried making miso caramel and it turned out amazing. Great on ice cream. But also: miso latte
Is it weird that I’ve never heard of miso paste? Or vegemite?
not unless you’re an aussie
I sprinkle flaked salt on the melted butter.
My wife thought this was the weirdest thing until I fed it to her, now she thinks it’s just the best
That sounds amazing. So many great suggestions in this thread!
If you are in the US and used to our preservative-filled bread, a $30 bread maker like the Dash, some flaked salt, and room-temperature real butter will make you wonder if you’ve ever had bread before.
